Le Grand Départ 2019.

[BalkanExpress]

Now that the Tour is over, it’s time to look forward to next year

The team time trial (stage 2) is passing my front door, weather permitting there will be a BBQ and beers and an open invitation to CCers who are over for the weekend.

I was looking at the potential of travelling to Brussels last night; will give you a shout if I decide to go

Chris Boardman has left ITV4 TdF.
I enjoyed his technical contributions and humour.

Hmmm.....if I can get the leave.....

@StuAff - depending on funds and no-deal travel issues I was wondering about either riding somehow or sharing the driving with a friend of mine who’s just bought a particularly dodgy-looking campervan. The plans are very fluid ATM but diverting via Pompey to pick you up would be no problem I’m sure.

@BalkanExpress if you’re serious about an open house then I’m more than interested. Stu will vouch for me won’t your Stu? Stu?! Stu??!!!

Wonder how big the house is?

The spare room is already reserved for @Specialeyes, Mrs Eyes and the Eyelets, but I am happy to feed and water people on the Sunday,

I am assuming that @StuAff has his usual emergency accommodation sorted.. only joking Stu. Just mind the tram tracks.

It's been a bit quiet on the Grand Depart front as I nearly had to spend that weekend in Poznan However, crisis averted.

I live on the route for the team time trial and so it is open house on the Sunday afternoon, a new (to me) BBQ has been purchased and there will be drinks. PM me if you are in town for the weekend and want to come along.

Malheureusement, I shall not even be on the same continent. Otherwise a very, very kind offer, thank you. I do not enjoy watching time trial on tv; watching live would an entirely different kettle of bidons. Exciting! Have a wonderful day.
